CVE-2005-1126

The SIOCGIFCONF ioctl ifconf function in FreeBSD 4.x through 4.11 and 5.x through 5.4 does not properly clear a buffer before using it, which allows local users to obtain portions of sensitive kernel memory...

CVE-2005-1126

CVE-2005-1126 is a kernel memory disclosure vulnerability tied to the SIOCGIFCONF (ifconf) path. In FreeBSD 4.x (4.0–4.11) and 5.x (5.0–5.4), the ifconf code may copy uninitialized kernel memory to user space because the buffer is not cleared before use, enabling local users to obtain portions of...

security flaw

Race condition in the setsid function in Linux before 2.6.8.1 allows local users to cause a denial of service crash and possibly access portions of kernel memory, related to TTY changes, locking, and semaphores...

security flaw

Multiple integer signedness errors in the sgscsiioctl function in scsiioctl.c for Linux 2.6.x allow local users to read or modify kernel memory via negative integers in arguments to the scsi ioctl, which bypass a maximum length check before calling the copyfromuser and copytouser functions...

CVE-2005-0178

CVE-2005-0178 describes a race condition in the setsid() handling of the Linux kernel before 2.6.8.1. Local users could crash the kernel and potentially access portions of kernel memory related to TTY changes, locking, and semaphores. Affected software: Linux kernel versions prior to 2.6.8.1 (per...

CVE-2003-1062

CVE-2003-1062 affects Solaris SYSINFO(2) on SPARC 2.6–9 and x86 2.6,7,8. A local attacker can read kernel memory by exploiting a 0 variable count argument in sysinfo(2), where copyout uses a -1 argument (described as an integer underflow/overflow). The provided sources do not specify a patch vers...

CVE-2005-0180

CVE-2005-0180 involves multiple signedness errors in sg_scsi_ioctl (scsi_ioctl.c) of Linux 2.6.x. The flaw lets a local user read or modify kernel memory by passing negative integers to the ioctl, bypassing a maximum-length check before copy_from_user/copy_to_user. Connected advisories (e.g., Man...

CVE-2004-1066

The CVE-2004-1066 issue affects FreeBSD’s procfs (procfs(5)) and linprocfs (linprocfs(5)) on FreeBSD 4.x/5.x. The vulnerability arises from dereferencing a processor argument vector without proper validation when reading /proc/curproc/cmdline (procfs) or /proc/self/cmdline (linprocfs). Impact is ...
